They told the publication in a statement: "We can confirm that following a slip yesterday at his home in the south of France, Elton visited a local hospital as a precautionary measure.
"Following check ups, he was immediately discharged this morning and is now back at home and in good health."
It is understood Elton has been spending the summer in France with his husband David Furnish and their two sons after wrapping up his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour back in July.
He was last seen enjoying a relaxing day on his superyacht with a host of A-list friends in St Tropez on August 22.
The singer was also spotted having dinner with Kevin Spacey in Niece earlier this month after the actor was cleared of sex attacks on four men.
While the Rocket Man singer hasn't rules out releasing new music in the future, the doting dad has decided to retire from touring to spend more time with his husband and their kids.

It's clear to see that family is important to the chart-topping singer who previously called his two sons "the greatest thing" in his life.
